In Loving Memory
of

Jerome Lloyd Brooks

Loving Husband, Father and Grandfather
Forever in Our Hearts

When I Must Leave You

When I must leave you
for a little while,

Please go on bravely
with a gallant smile
And for my sake and in my name,
Live on and do all things the same —
Spend not your life in empty days,
But fill each waking hour

in useful ways —
Reach out your hand
in comfort and in cheer,
And I in turn will comfort you
and hold you near.

Service conducted by

God saw you getting tired,
and a cure was not to be.
So He put His arms around you
and whispered, "Come with Me."

With tearful eyes we
watched you slowly fade away.
Although we loved you dearly,
we would not make you stay.
A golden heart stopped beating,
your hard-working hands put to rest,
God broke our hearts to prove to us

He only takes the best.

Remembering You Always
